Hold up your hands!'
The speaker was q man of slight but
shapely build, with a piercing eye, .
resolute look, commanding voice and
a bearing of one whe was absolute
master of the situation. Attired in his
robe de mutt he stood in doorway Of
the dining-room Of his own house. an
elegant mansion ON the boulevard, and
he held in his hand 44-caiber revol-
yer pointed straight ahead Of him with
an aim that varied not the smallest
fraction Of hairs breadth.
The man addressed was rufian Of
powerful frame and sinister aspect
He stood in front of an elaborate side
board, door of which was open, e1-
posing in the dim glare of the dark
lantern whose rays were flashed into
the interior a glittering array Of costly
plate which he was about to lay his
brawny hand upon when arrested
by the startling command already
quoted.
Taken by surprise che stalwart
marauder turned his face in tho d.
rection from which the voice proceeded
and stood for moment irresolute.
Some subtitle influence by which mind
sways mind, independent Of physical
environments ordisparities, apparently
mastered him, for he reluctantly raised
his hands, and the two men faced each
other in the darkeued room and q ST.
lence so profound that the 1nafied
heartbeats that shook the frame OF the
baHed burglar could almost be heard
by the calm. self-poised, relentless man
who still pointed the death-dealing im-
plement straight at his heart
'<Move @ muscle and you are a dead
man." suddenly exclaimed the voice
that had already smitten his herculean
form as with paralysis. aud the owner
OF that voice moved forward and took
the dark lantern from the nerveless
hand that held it. With swift and
methodical movements he placed 1t on
the sideboard SO that its rays feebly
outlined the form before him, and, with
chat terrible weapon still aimed aner~
ringly at his heart, he thrust his hands
into the pockets of the helpless wretch,
one after another, and drew forth q
clay pipe. q watch, a plug Of tobacco,
pint bottle, thirty-six cents in money
and q bunch Of keys; and, as he led
him to- the outside door of the house,
he handed him card on which WAS in

At a recent meeting of the Pckin Oil
entail Society, Mr.. Owen read a paper on
animal worship amongst the Chinese. He
referred TO the worship paid to the fox,
weasel, hedgehog and snake. to which

snake the five poisonous animals, as
they are ealled--are also objects Of wor-
